3 November 2022 - Diagnosed with Crohns Disease (K50.10) and Hematochezia.
4 November 2022 - My GI doc prescribed me Prednisone and I will start Entyvio infusions after one more round of blood
22 December 2022 - First Round of Entyvio Infusions
18 January 2023 - Had a meeting with my PCM to discuss all my symptoms and established a timeline (I'm guessing). He also told me that my case is passed the AMRO and going to a MEB once he receives one last document from my GI specialist.
15 February 2023 - First meeting with PEBLO, waiting on my Commanders Impact Statement.
23 February 2023 - Received CC Impact Statement who recommended that I not be retained in the best interest of my health.
28 February 2023 - Case sent to DPMNR (Medical Retention Standards) for disposition.
2 March 2023 - Returned to duty with assignment limitation code C.
7 March 2023 - PCS was canceled due to “medically disqualified from assignment.” Again discussed my concerns of the narrative summary with my PCM and told him I didn’t want to kick the can down the road for inevitable MEB. PCM stated he would reach back out to AFPC to clarify and discuss the documentation.
9 March 2023 - Follow up with GI specialist. They want me to start weekly methotrexate injections on top of Entyvio.
13 March 2023 - PCM spoke with AFPC about decision to return to duty. AFPC relayed that based on my career fields manning and our deployment metrics that they made the correct decision on returning to duty.
8 August 2023 - Had an appointment with my PCM to inform him I am still experiencing significant blood loss and have been now for approximately two years daily.
14 August 2023 - After giving it some thought, I have decided to open a case with patient advocate about my case being handled incorrectly. Two things I am most concerned about is that #1 my concerns with my narrative summary were never addressed. Additionally, after AFPC returned me to duty, my PCM stated "I never brought these concerns up." Even though I have the emails to both my PCM and PEBLO proving that I did. #2 AFPC told my PCM that my commander recommended I be retained, which is also not true based on the recommendation letter my CC provided.

Good choice. I think that going the patient advocate route is the way to go at this point!
